Chapter 1200 Useless!
" You… is this how you are supposed to talk to your mother?" Second Aunt Yu was furious. For the past few days, nothing was going according to her, her position in the mill was not firm and she was trying her best to keep her position while being targeted by the sister in law of the mill owner.
If she had the backing of the magistrate, Marquis and Song Yixu, would the owner of the mill make trouble with her? No! Instead of making trouble for her that woman would be sucking up to her but Yu Dong refused to help her. She didn't even look at her, it was enough to make Second Aunt Yu feel restless.
However, she consoled herself by thinking that even if Yu Dong did not accept her, at least Yu Tong who was her biological daughter was staying next to Yu Dong.
With Yu Tong staying close to Yu Dong was there anything that she needed to be worried about? Sooner or later Yu Tong would soften her stance and help her out.
But months passed by and Yu Tong was yet to soften her stance. If this goes on then she would definitely lose her job! She came here to remind Yu Tong of her status in her life but she did not expect that Yu Tong would actually retort to her so heartlessly, she looked at her daughter and then hissed sharply,

" Yu Tong! Have you forgotten that I am your mother? How can you talk to me like this?"
Yu Tong only stared at Second Aunt Yu coldly and sneered, " So you also know that I am your daughter? The way you slapped me just now was quite similar to how I would slap my enemies. Is this a new way a mother shows her love for her child now?"
Second Aunt Yu's face turned awkward she looked at Yu Tong and opened her mouth to say something but she closed her mouth once more. In the end, after struggling for a while she softened her stance and then said, " Xiao Tong, mother is doing this for you and Cheng Cheng. I know that you are angry but you need to see the clear picture all right?
Your brother is your biological sibling while Yu Dong is nothing but your cousin. Do you think that in times of need, she will help you? It will be your brother who will help you in times when you are desperate."
" Mother is only angry because you cannot see something so simple."
When Yu Tong heard her mother's words she was so amused that she wanted to laugh. She looked at her mother and said coldly, " Mother, everyone says that I am lucky that I have a true man as my brother but only I know that I am the unlucky one. Not only do I have to work hard to support his education but I also have to suffer beatings for his sake.
How many times have you scolded and humiliated me for Yu Cheng, did he ever take a stand for me? What has he done for me to help him? I don't want to help me!"
" Cousin Dong was the one who worked hard to make those connections and now you want me to jump the gun and hand all those connections to Yu Cheng? Are you even listening to what you are saying? Even if you do not feel ashamed, I do!"
Second Aunt Yu had never been humiliated like this by her daughter before, she was so angry that she wanted to slap her daughter once more but just as she raised her hand again, someone caught her wrist.
" YU DONG!" She shouted when Second Aunt Yu saw who was holding her wrist.
" There is no need to shout my name so loudly. I don't like anyone other than my husbands yelling my name so excitedly," Yu Dong said coldly as she flung Second Aunt Yu's hand away from Yu Tong's face. She then looked at the woman in front of her with a chill in her eyes and questioned, " Are you here to repay the thirty silver taels that you promised me?"
Second Aunt Yu's expression changed when she heard Yu Dong's words. When they were handing over the compensation, Second Aunt Yu did not have enough money to hand it to Yu Dong and she asked Yu Dong to give her some time to collect the thirty taels but after that, she saw Yu Dong getting better and better and decided that Yu Dong did not need the extra thirty taels.
Yu Dong also did not mention anything. It was especially so because Second Aunt Yu was Yu Tong's family and she did not want to push the latter too much but now it seemed like her little compensation bit her in the back.
This woman was really treating her as dead.
She then turned to look at Yu Tong and angrily slapped her on the back of her head. " What are you doing here? You are so useless! I asked you to pick up the boxes and fill up the carriage but here you are wasting time away. You eat my food and sleep in my house and yet you slack off at every turn, if the villagers make a loss because we arrive late at the mall are you going to pay me?"
Yu Tong rubbed her head and lowered her head, she bowed in front of Yu Dong and then rushed back. Seeing how Yu Dong was treating her daughter Second Aunt Yu felt her heartache a little. She could not help but say,
" Yu Dong what is the meaning of this, how could you hit your cousin like this?"
" What? Do you mean to say that I cannot even hit her now? Don't forget that after you kicked her and Grandma Yu out I was the one who brought them to my house and gave them a place to stay. If your heart hurts so much why don't you hand me three hundred taels on top of the thirty? You can take your daughter away then."
